Court OKs Ex-Teacher's Will: $300,000 to Charity
Martinez - Charitable groups have been awarded more than $300,000 from the estate of Mrs. Marrion Horr Jones, former high school teacher, under a court order.

She left $38,000 to two nephews and a niece with the residue, $304,274.00, to be divided by these charitable organizations: Contra Costa branch American Cancer Society, American board of Foreign Missions, Boston; Board of Home Missions and American Bible Society, both of New York.
Mrs. Jones, who died in April 1965, was a member of a pioneer east Contra Costa County ranching family and taught high school at Brentwood in the early 1900's.Marion married Rev. Augustine Jones on 25 May 1908 in Oak Park, Cook Co, Illinois, USA.
